SCT Buses
South Central Transit offers buses with air-conditioning, heating, air-ride suspension, and emergency equipment.
Handicapped Accessible
SCT is dedicated to meeting the needs of the disabled
community. Our drivers undergo sensitivity and passenger relations
training as well as training in evacuating elderly and disabled
passengers. Individual instruction sessions in using the services
of South Central Transit can be arranged for persons with disabilities
by contacting our office at 800-660-7433 or by E-Mailing Darrell
Wimberly, our Director of Training.
Suggestions for improvements in our services for the
disabled are always welcome. Please contact Darrell
Wimberly via email, or at 618-532-0189, Ext. 132.
Aides for persons with disabilities may accompany
a paying passenger at no extra charge if the aide provides door-to-door
assistance for the passenger. Service animals are allowed to assist
a passenger with his/her disability. Passengers needing mobility
aids must provide their own. SCT complies with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) by attempting to accommodate all wheelchair
and mobility aids in common use (including Amigas and other scooter-style
devices).
Many SCT vehicles are equipped with wheelchair lifts
and tie-downs for persons with mobility impairments. Inform our
Scheduling/Dispatching department of your special needs when scheduling
transportation.
